Description

Web design tools are great but they still fall short of all the incredible intrinsic based features of CSS. While there are features like auto-layout in Figma, they still fall so short of all the content driven features of The Web. Why is it that we still try to paint pretty pictures in a design tool and act like the web works that way? We can't control every details of what happens when our website is loaded on different devices over different networks and across different user preferences. Mattias Ott joins the show to discuss why design tools have fallen behind CSS and the mindset and skills we need to progress in our web designs.
